Debussy, Claude - String Quartets - Quatuor Van Kuijk
Leveranstid: Skickas vanligtvis inom 2-5 dagar
The first disc of the quartet founded by Nicolas Van Kuijk, a
programme of Mozart, was awarded a ‘Choc de Classica’ and
‘Diapason Découverte’. Now they return to their roots with key
works from the French repertory: the single quartets of Maurice
Ravel and Claude Debussy and the Chanson perpétuelle of
Ernest Chausson, in which they are accompanied by the mezzosoprano
Kate Lindsey, who recently joined Alpha, and the pianist
Alphonse Cemin, also well-known on the label.
The Quatuor Van Kuijk gives these works all their youthful
impetuosity. The quartet is already a BBC New Generation Artist, having won
First Prize and the Haydn and Beethoven Prizes at the Wigmore
Hall International String Quartet Competition, and First Prize and
the Audience Prize at the Trondheim International String Quartet
Competition. It has just joined the roster of ECHO Rising Star
artists for the 2017-18 season.
